If you celebrated Valentine’s Day like many people around the world did, you probably took lots of photos of your dinner, the presents you received, and your significant other. It was probably a memorable day for you, and the memories you captured on your phone or camera deserve to be displayed in their full-color glory.
Instead of letting the images languish on your phone, you should take out your precious photos and show them to the world! Sure, you can set the photos as a screensaver or wallpaper for your phone, but your photos still won’t escape the vice grip of your gadgets.
It’s time to get out of the box and start thinking of brilliant new ways to showcase your photos. Here are some ways to do so.
Compile them into a photo book
Before you dismiss photo books entirely, we have to let you know that these aren’t the same as the photo albums of your childhood. Today’s photo books let you showcase the specific images you want, straight from your device, edit them for a personal touch, and print them out in the layout of your choice. You can do this yourself, or use a service like Blurb to create photo books worth displaying on your coffee table. And since you can customize the number of images that will go in each photo book, you can create separate ones for your relationship milestones, like your Valentine’s Day celebration.
Make a photo collage
Feeling more creative? You can gather all your favorite photos of your Valentine’s Day celebration, print them out, and arrange them into a heart which you can then frame. You can even add movie tickets, pressed flowers, and other memorabilia. That’s such a cute way to show all your Valentine’s Day memories, right?
Display them on a digital frame
Speaking of framed pictures: You can always print out your images and display them on picture frames, but this route severely limits the number of pictures you can display. Not to mention, you can only display so many frames around your home until it gets overrun by photo frames. Marie Kondo will say that this situation will definitely not spark joy.
You know what sparks joy, though? Having all your Valentine’s Day photos, as well as images from other occasions, on a single frame on your mantel, displayed crisply and vividly on an HD screen. You can achieve this by investing in a Nixplay Frame, the bestselling digital photo frame brand in the US. We recommend getting one for your home and gifting another to your significant other, and sharing your photos via playlists. It’s a brilliant way to stay connected, no matter where you may be.
Have them printed on a tumbler
Another smart way to display your favorite photos is to have them custom-printed on a tumbler or a flask. There are several sellers that offer this service, and the price should be quite reasonable. Want to go the easy DIY route? Get a double-walled tumbler that you can customize, and decorate it with photos and messages to one another. Now you’ll always be reminded of your lover whenever you take an h2o break!
Display them on a magnet or cork board
Here’s another great way to always see your images of your Valentine’s Day celebration: Print them out and arrange them on a magnet board or a corkboard in your home (or even your office!). Use cute pins and magnets to hold up your images, as well as letters, movie tickets, maps, playbills, and other small documents that mark milestones of your relationship.
Whichever way you choose to display your photos, always remember the most important thing: To prioritize your relationship and spend quality time with one another, photo-taking optional. Keep the love alive, Nixplay fam!
